Waking up next to an angel
Almost every day of my life
as she reaches out to touch,
It all feels a lie!
Been eating up my insides
Betrayal is all I have to offer
What had she done to deserve this?
Always been there for me,
Waiting into the wee hours of the night
every time that I slipped
She was there to pick me up
And put me back on to the paths of life
Betrayal is all I have to offer
What had she done to deserve this?
All those lies without any protection
I'm tired of constant deception!
Excuses that surpassed the boundaries of sin!
Tossing and turning well into the daylight
What had she done to deserve me?
They say 'Misery loves company'
But, I waited for it for so long
Now; treachery is my only company
From here till the end of my road
